“Multiculturalism is a body of thought in political philosophy. . .”
“While multiculturalism has been used as an umbrella term to characterize the moral and political claims of a wide range of disadvantaged groups, including African Americans, women, gays and lesbians, and the disabled, most theorists of multiculturalism tend to focus their arguments on immigrants who are ethnic and religious minorities (e.g. Latinos in the U.S., Muslims in Western Europe), minority nations (e.g. Catalans, Basque, Welsh, Québécois), and indigenous peoples (e.g. Native peoples in North America, Maori in New Zealand).” —Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy

The damage caused by multiculturalism is greater to recent immigrants, American blacks and American Indians than the rest of us. Immigrants as recent as the Cubans in 1959-61 got busy, learned English and became proud productive Americans. As a matter of fact, the case could be made that the progressives came up with the idea of Multiculturalism to keep blacks as victims when segregation was dismantled.
